The Best!

I can fit exactly 47 lbs of tools in this case with the lid accessory. I know this because I travel all over the world as a technician. I have uploaded photos of this case after twenty trips across seas to the Middle East and Europe and the tools that fit in it. I will now list what I carry in this case: 1 Bosch ps-21 hand drill with extra battery and charger, two full sets of drill bits, two sets of security bits, a ferrule crimper, rj-45 crimper, an automatic wire stripper, 2 handheld wire strippers, d-type crimper, coaxial compression crimper, lmr-400 stripper, fiber shears, scissors, screw driver, precision screw driver, 1/4" socket set, cutters, utility knife, pens, files, center punch, coaxial stripper, cable stripper, fluke pro 300 probe and toner, multimeter, Allen wrenches, 6" crescent, channel locks, 8-12mm and 1/4"-1/2" spanners, 2 greenlee crimpall crimpers and die set, punchdown tool, soldering iron, coaxial/cat tester, head lamp, safety glasses, hearing protection, and solder. I hope that I am doing this case justice when I say it is the best case I have found and currently in production at this time. Do I have to organize my tools in roll up pouches and a sensible manner? Yes but who wouldn't? There is nothing I could to do to improve this case unless I spent 3-6 months custom designing a 2nd version of this case with pelican. If you are curious about its capabilities all of the gear I have listed has survived TSA and every other transportation agency I have run into so far.

Great travel case to protect my camera equipment

Great travel case to protect my camera equipment. I used camera backpacks for years and put my lens and bodies in individual cases for protection. I was always concerned that I was going to drop it and break one of them. After using pelican cases for years, to protect laptops and other smaller electronics, when this one went on sale I jumped on it. I have traveled on three trips with this so far and it stands up to the Pelican name. I have no worries about any of my expensive glass getting damage while traveling. Also, the ability to lock up the case is great. If you buy this, make sure you buy a couple of travel locks. On two of my flights, I had to check it at the gate (due to small planes) and I was able to lock it up and pink tag it. It is pretty heavy with all of my camera gear in it, but no heavier than my camera backpack was (and this has wheels). I found that it fits easily in an airplane overhead storage bin There are several posts that talk about cutting the pick and pull foam. I found it pretty simple. I did screw up a couple of cuts and cut it a tad too wide. I used some glue to reattach the foam and it seems to be working like a charm. I also purchased the lid organizer. I find it is great to put cleaning kit, lens filters and batteries. I even keep my lenses and bodies in this case at the house.

One of the best investments I’ve made.

I love this thing. It’s built like a tank. I literally tried so hard to imagine how sturdy it would be and I was so far off. I think I could drop my entire kit of video gear off a roof and it would be fine. I think I’m gonna do it... jk It looks and feels great. Handles are premium and it really sets itself apart from my (what I previously thought was) nice drone case. It’s functional. Wheels, an extendable handle, airtight, waterproof, AND it’s small enough to be a carryon. It’s roomy. I have two full frame camera bodies, three lenses, batteries, lav mics, shotgun mic, and some tools packed in there. Just put some thought into your pick n’pluck, there’s no way to go back once you’ve picked and plucked other than buying more foam. MY ONE SEMI-COMPLAINT: This thing is HEAVY FOR ITS SIZE. And I can’t even complain because: a) Pelican has released a newer, lighter version of this case and b) I’ll take heavy duty any day of the week if I know my gear is safe. Just buy it already.

This is luggage for the SERIOUS traveler.

I work as an internationally travelling archaeologist, and I ordered this case to use as my primary checked luggage on flights. Initially I removed the foam inserts and just used the empty case as a trunk of sorts, but I have since separately ordered the inserts for the LOC "Laptop Overnight Carry" package of 1510 cases. (Ordering the case and inserts separately even saved me a few dollars.) I put all my breakables and no-fly items like my laptop, tools and field knife, along with most clothing in this case, and carry a few changes of clothes/winter wear in a smaller duffle that I use as my carry-on. This way I can be assured my checked items will arrive in one piece, and if the checked bag gets misplaced I still have my bare minimums to get by in a separate bag. This size is perfect for use as a carry-on itself, but on some international flights they will ask you to check it regardless. This case is built like a tank, and I have absolutely no qualms about having my luggage strapped to the top of a tuk-tuk during monsoon or kicked into the back of an open-bed utility truck. A typical packing list that I can fit consists of my laptop, hard drive, and accompanying cables and accessories, two pairs of Carhartt double front dungaree pants for the field, five field shirts, five pairs of hiking socks, enough boxers to see me through the trip, plus a small toiletry kit. This will work great for a one week trip, for longer adventures I pack the additional duffle. I could have purchased a larger pelican style, but my original intent was to spread the load and diversify my luggage options. This case weighs in at approx. 11 pounds, so I really have to work hard at packing it with enough stuff to put it over the 50lb excess baggage wight limit. If I manage to ever break anything on this case, Pelican has phenomenal customer support, and will usually replace most anything for free. I used quite a few luggage options before I chose to take the plunge and invest in this case, and boy do I wish I had just invested in perfection right from the start! This is a case for someone who does some serious travelling and needs luggage that can keep up with their rugged lifestyle.

Deceivingly spacious - perfect for camera gear

First off, I should mention that I bought this case specifically for photography gear. I'm a wedding/event photographer and need to transport my gear to/from locations and wanted something a bit more durable and easier to work out of. My goal was to be able to put my more expensive primary items in this case, while still using my backpack for outdoor (mobile) shooting. When I first unboxed the case, I thought I was going to have to buy a larger one. I was pleasantly surprised with how much gear I was able to fit after spending a morning carefully breaking away the pre-cut cube foam. Keep this in mind. You will need to sit yourself down for several hours carefully shaping the foam. I found it quite enjoyable despite the fact that I watched Manchester United lose (again) while doing this. Just take your time and try to leave about 2 layers of foam between the heavier items. FYI: Inspect the foam grid before you start breaking out the pieces you don't need! There is a seam that runs along the middle in the horizontal and vertical directions that is slightly wider than the pre-cut squares. It's hard to explain, but you'll notice it if you just take one close look. I would suggest you try to leave these 2 seams untouched as they will give the foam a tiny bit more rigidity. For reference, here's the gear that I'm storing in this case: - Canon 1D-series body (w/ eyepiece extender and an Arca Swiss plate plus CustomSLR C-loop on bottom) - Canon 6D body (w/ eyepiece extender and CustomSLR C-loop on bottom) - 24-70mm 2.8L lens w/ hood attached - 135mm 2.0L lens w/ hood attached - 16-35mm f/2.8L *without the hood* or 35mm f/1.4L lens - 3 Canon Speedlites (more on this below)*** - Some slots plucked out for smaller items (16 AA batteries, extra 1D battery, extra 6D battery, 6D charger, 3 Speedlite shoes, 8 card SD card holder. I work out of this case when I'm on location. If I'm going to go mobile, I'll pick out what I need and throw it in my backpack. ***Note retarding Speedlites: I have 600EX's. This case is about 1/4" too shallow to place them vertically. If you could, there would be even more space for gear. I have 2 of the flashes laying on top of each other and the 3rd is placed in a slot where the head is tilted in the 90-degree position. If you have 580EX (or something other) check the length. If they are at least 1/4 inch shorter when the head is pointed directly up, this case will hold a bit more gear. After thinking about the purchase of this specific case a bit more, I will likely buy a second identical one so I have a place for the rest of my photography related gear (brackets, extra card holders, 70-200 f2.8L IS lens, 1D series body charger (which is big), AA chargers, etc.) I'm not going to question the durability of any Pelican case. I have 2 others that I've been using for many years and they are as close to indestructible as you can get. It's a very safe purchase that will last a very long time. Keep in mind that these cases hold their value should you decide to sell it a year or 3 down the road. I'll snap a photo of my layout and upload it here ASAP.

Perfect case for flying

Use this as a carry-on while flying for camera gear and scuba gear (8x and no problems so far). Works great and you do not have to worry about your expensive gear being damaged. The wheels and extending handle make it easy to "carry" when it is fully loaded. I replaced the foam that came with the case with TrekPak as it allows me to easily configure the inside for different load-outs. Added bonus; you can easily make room in the overhead bins due to that person who puts a jacket and handbag in the overhead instead of under the seat, the flight attendants do an excellent job of making everything fit :) You certainly don't have to worry about your gear being damaged.

Carry on my wayward son..

I bought this to use as a carry on for short trips. It fits three days of cloths, toiletries, and my iPad pro with charger. That is about the maximum I could fit though. I am not going to use the foam but to order the one without foam the shipping time was crazy long. My job uses Pelican cases for protecting our expensive tools, so I know they are superior for durability and protection. All in all I think this will make a great piece of luggage for a long weekend or a short business trip.

From Your Short Wedding Photog..

As a female wedding and portrait photographer, a lot of people told me this would be too heavy for me, especially once all the gear was in. I figured, I already am carrying all that gear in three different bags (inefficient!) and it can't get that much heavier in a Pelican. I'm beyond glad I did this. I am so RELIEVED of the weight from carrying three bags that couldn't be rolled, but had to be carried over my shoulders or back ALL day long. I've rolled this sucker on grass, on hills, pebbles (okay, had to eventually carry it over that, but that's ok!), and this little beauty just rolls right along. I love it so much. I'm also short, so standing on it for when I forget a chair or stool is perfect. This is my new assistant.

This makes for some easy feedback, as Pelican cases have always (at least in our experience) lived up to their hype. We sometimes get other brands who send in a case or two to try to thwart our balance of opinion with---but so far, Pelican seems to be one of the only cases that feel right, look right, perform right, and still counts for the majority of what we use. Also, this specific case is great for your carry on. Assuming at least that you keep an eye on your weight. You may want to buy a scale because it's quite easy to get carried away (see my pun?).
